Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 545

Alexander was stunned by her question. "Oh, I'm here to see if there's any lemonade. I've been staying up late recently, and my metabolism has been slowing to a crawl."

Nodding, Cecil then asked someone to pour him a glass of lemonade.

"Cecil, about your brother..."

"My brother will be fine. He has always been a strict person. How can he be manipulated easily by others?" Although she said it easily, her heart ached as if it was being grabbed.

Though he did not expose her, he picked up on the sorrow in her eyes.

It was good for her to be in a state of self-denial, at least it could support her faith.

In addition, she would let others know that nothing bad had happened to Lenold.

When they came out of the kitchen, Felicia's eyes had turned red. It was not rocket science to surmise what had happened.

At that moment, all four of them were in silence.

The silence was broken when Thaud and Diana arrived.

They were taken aback by their arrival.

"Everleigh, you're here," Diana squeezed out a greeting. It wouldn't hurt to be polite.

Everleigh nodded and asked, "When did you come back?"

"I heard about Lenold last night, so I came back immediately." Diana's gentle voice came through, and the concern in her voice was obvious.

However, her words took a different form in the ears of Cecil and Everleigh. They assumed that she couldn't wait for him to be in trouble.

Diana couldn't read their minds, but she turned to look at Alexander. She had met him, the eldest of the Jenkins family, before.

Looking at his handsome features, she had an idea.

"You're one of the members of the Jenkins family, yes? Hi, I'm Diana. Have you ever heard of me from my sister?" Diana extended her hand in a very generous manner.

She put on a genuine smile.

However, Alexander glanced at her hand and said coldly, "Miss Hayes, shouldn't you be concerned about the safety of your brother first at this moment?"

His words embarrassed her.

"Some people just like the attention," Thaud mumbled from the back, and everyone could hear the sarcasm in his tone.

After hearing what he'd said, Diana couldn't help but feel humiliated.

"I... I just don't want to neglect the guest."

"Those who are here are all my friends. They don't care about these unnecessary greetings. Diana, go back to your room if you have nothing else in mind," Cecil said unpleasantly.

Diana bit her lip and her face filled with grievances. She turned around and went upstairs.

Felicia had encountered countless people, so she was all too clear about what Diana was thinking.

"Cecil, this sister..."

"Sister? No way. She's just a child who was fostered by the Hayes family." Cecil was leaning against the sofa and was displeased by Diana's presence.

Everleigh gently tapped Felicia, signaling her not to speak of it again.

Felicia understood as well. She sat on the sofa and didn't say a word.

It was almost noon when Jaseh returned. When he saw the visitors in his house, he knew what

was going on.

"Dad, how is it?"

"The government has found some clues and they know that your brother is active abroad. At least now we can ensure that he is still alive," he said with slight excitement.

Hearing this, Everleigh was delighted and asked, "Do... Do you know the exact location?"
